The Elite is by far the better gun. I've sold a lot of RIAs and they are good for what they are, but they lack attention to detail. The Para Elite will be a lot nicer in finish and detail. The Elites are actually using a lot of EGW parts.

Also, there is no such thing as Para Ordnance any longer. The company was purchased by the same parent company that owns Remington and the company was renamed Para USA.

I really like my Para Warthog (.45 ACP, 3" barrel, 10+1 capacity).
It is plenty accurate up to 50', has been reliable, no ftf nor fte, and is easy to carry and conceal.
I don't know what your purpose for the gun is, but to carry concealed, it is fine for me.
